The inside bore is 1/4" not sure if thats what you meant, you may need to stretch and cut down if you need it sprung.

expansion,it,s like you would find in a biro,ie very fine wire,length is not important as i can stretch/chop it.
it fits into the DI (coil pack) on my SAAB and touches the top of the spark plugs

I had this problem on my Nissan and I used the spring from inside a Biro
I'm addicted to brake fluid, but I can stop anytime.

I was brung up on yards and furlongs, pounds and ounces and when I was at grammar school the farthing was legal tender. I tend to speak foreign
measurements so the young whippersnappers on here can understand, didn't work, did it?
Oh! and I checked the spring in my spare black DIC and it fits, so there
